| Obverse description | Uncrowned effigy of King Charles III facing left, rendered in a mature, naturalistic portrait style engraved by Raphael David Maklouf. The bust occupies the central field with the circumferential legend reading 'CHARLES III · KING OF GIBRALTAR · TEN PENCE ·' around the periphery. The date '2023' appears in the lower portion of the legend, completing the circular inscription. The portrait is bare-headed, depicting the King in advanced age with carefully modelled facial features. The overall design is austere and dignified, consistent with the official coinage portrait tradition for Gibraltar. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features facing portrait effigies of Queen Elizabeth II and King Charles III positioned on either side of the central field, symbolising the dynastic transition of the Crown. Between the two monarchs, the royal regalia — comprising a crown, sword, and orb — are depicted as emblems of sovereign continuity. The composition is framed by an extended commemorative legend occupying the peripheral band, quoting a statement attributed to King Charles III regarding the Commonwealth. The design is thematic and commemorative in character, marking the passing of the Crown following the accession of Charles III in September 2022. |
